Note Slide from Push

📁 Original board: Chameleon › Feature Wishlist

Hi, I am using the software to create isomorphic keyboard layouts for microtonal tunings. I think one feature that would be great is if notes could Slide from a Push. Currently you can either play a note by push, or by sliding to it - but the slide only works if the slide motion begins from a blank area. It is not possible to Push a note and Slide to the note next to it. Only to Slide everywhere from the start.

Please see this web app for what I think would be an ideal behaviour; I built the same keyboard in Chameleon - it's great!

Thanks

For your info I found somewhat of a workaround keeping a small border around each note by sizing them down. This allows me to choose to carefully approach any by slide at which point I would be able to move away from them by slide.

Notes being locked when they are not approached by slide actually allows something very cool where one finger can be kept down as a drone no matter how far the hand moves away. I love this tool!

Hi Tom, a video will be very cool for understand all 100% 🙂 Specially this workaround, in order not change something in the software in a future editions/releases of the software, you know change something messed up this behaviour.

I do like the drone ability that this quirk enables. So I guess I'm not sure how I could have both these things at once 🙂 But I think Slide-From-Push would be useful

Thanks for the videos.
I take a look to see how solve this.
